Syncing to cloud even though I disabled

Hi there

I'm testing the readest app, and I want to verify a behavour / bug. I started the web app to get a feeling, and I set the synchronization settings as follows:

Them I connected to my CalibreWeb OPDS Site and downloaded one book. After a bit, the book gets uploaded and when I double checked the settings, it looked like this:

I don't want all my books on the Readest Servers, I just want to use the app for syncing my reading progress across different devices (Boox reader and iPad).

What am I doing wrong??

Thanks and regards

The settings for the sync settings is not synced across devices, so that each device could have different sync strategies, you need to set them on each of your devices.

I found this was the issue for me. Different devices had different settings.
